 ====== Visual3D Toolbar ======
-The toolbar provides common buttons/tasks that can be done within Visual3D.
+In the Visual3D application, a toolbar is available on the top of the screen providing buttons which execute common tasks required by users. Depending on the tab that is currently open, (Workspace, Signals and Events, Models, Reports, etc.), more buttons can appear displaying common processes for the tab.
-Depending on the current tab (Workspace, Signals and Events, Models, Reports, etc.), the toolbar options will change.
+This page will provide a description of the buttons available on the toolbar in order for users to understand the functionality. Equivalent commands will also be included if working through the pipeline rather than the user interface.
 ==== Workspace Tab ====
-The following is displayed in the toolbar when selecting the **Workspace** tab:
+The workspace tab toolbar includes the main buttons to control the workspace, the following is displayed:
